Abstract
The phenomenon of small human papillomavirus-associated cervical adenocarcinomas involving the ovary via a transuterine and transtubal route is uncommon but well described in the literature. We report a unique case of a small human papillomavirus-associated cervical adenocarcinoma spreading to both ovaries and the pelvis via this route 22 mo after loop excision and trachelectomy and developing into a high-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma in the metastasis.
